I cannot see any information that indicates the CO has taken steps to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement. Therefore the cache is being Archived to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived. This is explained in the Help Center article [here](http://support.groundspeak.com//index.php?pg=kb.page&id=70).

If you wish to contact me please send an email via my profile - [Bunjil,](https://coord.info/PR9GZ0K) and quote the cache name and GC number.

In Swan Hill for an event with Mrs. Aussie M&M and mogni. To save space, we simply put our group stamp of GOTHS (Geocachers Of The HillS) in the logs. Cool
After a very long look we checked all the hints and logs but still nada. Sad
Thanks Swanhllian for the search. Big Grin

No luck for us today.... adding to our DNF list.
 
07-May-17
This area is quite bare at the moment and either the cache has moved or is buried by mulch. Could this please get checked?
 
07-May-17
We had 3 cachers looking here. As this is effectively the 5th dnf I believe the CO should check the cache. Thx.

Taking the geo kids caching during the school holidays, while towing a 24 foot caravan. This was our second attempt as this one and the GPS was still jumping all over the place. Spent far too long searching for this one, when all of a sudden, the geo son made the find. Great to be able to strike this off the to do list.
Thanks Swanhllian for placing & maintaining these cache for us to find.

Find #6381

Today was day eight of the ahomburg and sharkiefan 2015 road trip to South Australia. While not in South Australia anymore, it was the last day of our SA holiday, and needing around 40 finds to hit 1000 caches over the last nine days, we had high hopes. The weather was absolutely wonderful, we started in Mildura, followed by Swan Hill and finally onto Bendigo.


A bit of a walk for this one and we wandered around in the trees for a bit until sharkiefan uncovered the nicely hidden cache


Thanks to Swanhllian for the cache. TNLN


Big things are happening! Are you joining the fun?

Parked on the corner and walked round to find the correct way in. Not too many places to hide a cache meant that we soon found it and signed the log.

Thanks
 
10-Aug-14
This is too nice a spot not to have an active cache, so I've replaced the cache and it's now all ready to go again and be found. Cheers.
 
12-Jul-14
Disappointed

This hasn't been found since March. Time for CO to check and confirm if this is here.
 
28-Apr-14
Another DNF!!
 
09-Apr-14
We searched around here in the wet but were unable to make a find today.
 
08-Apr-14
When a guy nearby who had been dishing out orders not too happily to some workers wanted to know if we were alright, (in an arboretum!) MrG explained we were there to look at some dead plants. Once he left and we could study the dead plants more carefully we still didn't have the cache.
 
07-Apr-14
The curse of the "If" strikes again [:o]

I enjoyed my morning stroll across the parklands, past the playground, and the "not so giant Murray Cod" before reaching the Meeting Place Smile

Nobody to meet here today, just a cache.
But search and poke as I might,
After 40 minutes I gave up !!
Not a trace of a cache anywhere here !! [:o]

Maybe the local vandals who have set fire to the treated pine logs found it while scrounging up enough kindling to get the fire going ??
I hope they breathed in some of the fumes !! Razz

Thanks for the stroll and interesting spot !!
 
24-Mar-14
Enjoyed the stroll, was impressed with the whole concept of this arboretum and made a quick find TFTC Swanhillian
